We have a fantastic opportunity for a dental therapist to join our busy service, working in the Public Dental Service, within modern and well-equipped surgeries. This is an excellent opportunity to join an evolving remote and rural dental team, with a strong focus on quality, patient-centred care and skill-mix. Therapists working in our service benefit from professional colleague support through Dentists and Senior Dentists; excellent Dental Nurse and reception support; and the opportunity to work with a wide range of patients with varying needs.
NHS Shetland provides a full range of NHS general dental services and dental care for priority groups with special needs through the salaried Public Dental Service; secondary care dental services (orthodontics and maxillofacial surgery) through a clinical network of visiting consultants and local practitioners; school inspections and oral health promotion services. The workforce consists of dentists, therapists, hygienists, qualified and trainee dental nurses, oral health advisors and high-quality, dedicated dental support staff.
Shetland is a great place to live and to work, offering a strong and welcoming community spirit, a safe environment for children, excellent schools and first-rate transport links to the rest of the UK. Further information is available at www.shetland.org.
